Can we please have the text format 'paint brush' back as this is used a ot within my team. Can we also have a way to switch the conversation view on and off throughout all folders at once rather than having to do them individually.

Just wanted to bring your attention towards the "Stay Signed in" alert that comes after logging into outlook. Even after selecting Yes, system prompts again in next login which was not intended. And once I have selected never show this message again then also same message prompts. So, my suggestion:
1. Either disable the functionality
2. Enable the functionality after the issue is fixed.

Hi,
Could 'For Information Only', 'Action Required' be added to the Message Options choices? This would allow information requiring action, or not, to be disseminated and sorted. I think it would be an aid to communications.

Also, a 'delete by' function whereby we can set a rule that any messages of a type or from a recipient group will automatically be deleted - or even a 'mission impossible' function that will enable the sender to set a 'destruction date' should they wish to.

Regarding "Inbox and sweep rules", I would like to have a "discard" option added to the list of available actions. Even though I can choose the existing "delete" action, the rule still places the matching emails into my Deleted Items folder; I'd rather have them bypass Deleted Items altogether.

Is there a way on the settings to recognize when you receive an email on your tab. For instance when you're in another screen other than your email usually from other previous emails we've used you can see 1,2,3 etc emails that you haven't read yet that is displayed on your tab for that email window.

Currently, the new platform icon does not show when a new message has been received. The old Outlook icon had the little mail icon pop up when a new message was received, and this was a very helpful function that made it easier to know when a new message was received, so emails could be answered quickly and so I didn’t have to constantly check my mailbox to see if I had a new message.

Just dealt with a situation where a user's account was spoofed/hacked and ended up with over 4000+ Undeliverable emails. The issue is there is NO WAY to clean up these 4000+ emails already in the inbox.
On the O365 web email, I can't run a rule on past emails to clean up the inbox. On top of it I cannot "Select All" emails from a search either. It only selects the first dozen emails, only the ones visible. It also looks like the search doesn't return all of the emails, only a 50 to 100 of them.
My suggestion is to add the ability to run a rule on your inbox on past emails already in your inbox. Now I want this now. Not yesterday. 4000+ emails is ridiculous hard to clean up when you have multiple good emails received in those 4000 emails. Get your act together Microsoft!
